Hello everybody! It’s that time of year again, one week from tomorrow we will have the premiere of Big Brother 12, are you excited?!? We sure are and today, on The Early Show, Julie Chen introduced us to our houseguests for this season! In just a bit of time we will have the bios of each houseguest up and ready to go, you can read them here!

Update: Thanks to this EW tweet, we know the HG reveal will happen around 8:40am EST on the Early Show! Per a CBSTweet, tomorrow looks to be BIG BROTHER day! On Wednesday, June 30, we’ll not only get a sneak peek at the new Big Brother house, details from Media Day, but we will also…

According to a CBS Press Release, “one contestant will enter the Big Brother House with one goal: To secretly wreak havoc on their fellow contestants.” Things we now know about the Saboteur via CBS: *The Saboteur will receive their suggested task from fans. *This person will enter the house as the Saboteur, playing their own…

According to the article in the post previous (TV Guide), there will be 14 Houseguests this season, not 13 as we once thought. Now what we don’t yet know is if the 14th HG will be the “Saboteur” or if it will be a genuine HG. My guess is one of the 14 will be…

[singlepic id=262 w=240 h=320 float=left] (Click the pic for a larger view) Thanks to Hamsterwatch for posting the twitpic alerting us to all of this. A new article in TV Guide gives us an interview with the guru herself, Alison Grodner and she gives us some tidbits on the new contestants. As quoted, she states that alot of the new houseguests felt Jordan didn’t earn the win and are coming in wanting to do the opposite of Jordan. Basically, be like Natalie. And that’s why they’re morons. Or at least will realize they are afterwards.

The article goes on to state that there’s going to be a new twist to this game (the saboteur as we scooped yesterday) and interactive audience participation. What this tells me is that there’s a mole, and we get a say in things. The “mole” won’t have a chance to win the money, but in some way get to sabotage things around the house. Hopefully they won’t get to purposely mess up one person’s game! And hopefully we get to tell him or her what to do some of the time! So back to why the anti-Jordan strategists are morons, or basically the pro-Natalie strategies. (Oh, and tell us what you think in our forum, here!)

A nine-hour adaptation of "11/22/63" - King's thriller about the Kennedy assassination - is headed directly to Hulu. Helmed by Abrams, the series is a limited “event series,” but there will be opportunities for future subsequent seasons based on the story, which follows high school English teacher Jake Epping, who travels back in time to try to prevent the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in Dallas on the fateful date in American history.
